[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 for-2.7] Update ancient copyright string in -version output

[Peter Maydell]

Currently the -version command line argument prints a string ending
with "Copyright (c) 2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard".  This is now some
eight years out of date; abstract it out of the several places that
print the string and update it to:

Copyright (c) 2003-2016 Fabrice Bellard and the QEMU Project developers

to reflect the work by all the QEMU Project contributors over the
last decade.

The aim here is to (1) update the dates and (2) acknowledge
the work of all our contributors. I'm open to bikeshedding
on the exact wording (or on which header file we should
put the #define in...)

I only pulled out the copyright string proper into the #define
because a GUI About box is going to want just that, with no
leading ',' or trailing newline.

Fabrice: I have cc'd you since this is proposing an update
to your copyright info.

v1->v2 changes: add the qemu-img.c string.
